'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 2.7 M2 rc2 was released on May 5, 2019.
*YP 4.0.35 is due to release
*We believe we now have all the key components for 2.7M3 in master-next but have not completed a successful test run with this. In addition to the list last week, this means M3 will include:
*YP 5.3.4 is in QA
**5.0 kernel
*YP 6.0 rc1 is in QA
**qemuarm transition to armv7
*There will be no patch review on Monday 4th May due to public holidays.
**Busybox full replacement utils
*We continue to triage the CVEs being reported by the new tooling.
*Some invalid source revisions tested in master-next have broken the autobuilder causing build hangs and failures. With travel and other distractions, nobody is available to dive in and debug this immediately so it will block M3.
*There were some last minute changes to DISTRO_FEATURES behaviour to resolve some usability issues that users identified.
*We also want to complete the transition to the new QA process and test this for M3. Aproov is going to send out details of this imminently, we believe the main code work is complete and its process/documentation that remains. We will block on this as we want to use the new QA process for M3 and the final 2.7 release.
*There have been several issues in pseudo identified and these have been fixed in the various pseudo point releases. We will upgrade pseudo in 6.0.1 to pull these in.
*YP 2.5.3 continues to be blocked on autobuilder-helper changes for the stable branches and the resulttool changes in master to move to the new QA process.
*There have been issues with 403 errors from crates.io, there is a change in bitbake to use the preferred upstream urls via their CDN.
*The kvm cpu features issue looks to be a host system CPU microcode issue and using the latest microcode appears to have resolved the issues.
*git:// protocol access to git.yoctoproject.org and git.openembeded.org is deprecated and going forward https:// URLs should be used to access git repositories. We are aiming to discontinue git protocol use.
*We’re working through the backlog of patches and intermittent build failures are still problematic. We continue to struggle for bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback but are trying to clear the backlog.


'''Planned Releases for YP 2.7:'''<br/>
'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*YP 2.7 M3 Cutoff is Feb. 25, 2019
*We have several open issues for pseudo and limited maintainer time to work on them. Help from someone familiar with systems programming in C would be greatly appreciated. https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/buglist.cgi?list_id=661406&priority=High&priority=Medium%2B&product=Pseudo&query_format=advanced&resolution=---
*YP 2.7 M3 Release Target is Mar. 8, 2019
*There are a large number of intermittent failures on our autobuilder, any help with investigating, reproducing or solving these issues would be welcome! https://valkyrie.yocto.io/pub/non-release/abint/
*YP 2.7 M4 Cutoff is Apr. 1, 2019
*Many recipes in openembedded-core would benefit from a new recipe maintainer. Please look at https://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/tree/meta/conf/distro/include/maintainers.inc and see if you can adopt any of the unassigned recipes.
*YP 2.7 M4 Release Target is Apr. 26, 2019
